Jerry Springer hosts a game show in which future “lovers” reveal their biggest baggage before they fall in love – why did I not know about this earlier?

Last week, I wrote a review of AMC’s new zombie series, “The Walking Dead,” and it got me thinking a lot about zombies. Let me set the record straight: I hate them. I think they are the worst villains that horror movies or shows have ever come up with, and I don’t really understand why they are popular.

Is the only difference between “Lone Star” and “Mad Men” that the latter is on cable TV? Are basic network audiences not ready to accept a morally ambiguous leading man? There are only a few main characters on today’s shows that are not outright heroes or villains.
